Jesse,
F8 is currently the only selection method available when we're in browse
mode, i.e. on the web, in CHM help files, and in email messages
displayed using browse mode.
It's a block selection method that's used in some other programs as
well. Just move to the point where you want to begin selection, press
F8, move to the end of the selection point, and press F8 again. A dialog
will pop up with a Copy to clipboard button focused as the default.
And if you just want to select the text of a link you can simply press
F8 twice while you're anywhere within that link text.
Shift-Arrow selection will be coming. It just hasn't been implemented yet.
Hth,
Tom

Hi guys.
One thing I've read a lot of is f8 and other things. Is that
similar to highlighting a block of text, formerly working with Contro
Windows right arrow or to copy a link, shift down arrow would work. You
can't do any of that on a website but intestingly, you can still select
text the older way in properties, or word or even e-mail messages. For
example, I can still copy this with Control shift right arrow and
produce this.

Trouble is, can't duplicate that on google, or any other site. Wonder
how f8 fits into this equation while the older way of copying and
pasting still works in properties or other applications but not in IE,
Firefox or the like?
